Bank Job + Jackson Howard

By Ser Hayeneck, in Android: Netrunner Rules Questions

Hi,

We were not sure how to handle this:

- Runner declares a run on remote server with only one face-down card, no ICE.

- Corp rezzes card: Jackson Howard. Corp trashes it to use the effect.

Now there is no more card left, the remote is literally gone. Can a Bank Job still be used to cash in?

Yes: There was a remote when the run was initiated. The run is considered successful, even if the corp trashes the last card in it.

No: No existing remote server when "Successful run"-condition happens, no bank job!

What is correct?

From the FAQ, if a server ceases to exist mid-run, the run immediately ends. It is not considered to have been successful or unsuccessful.

So no, you can't Bank Job, but neither can the corp use Successful Demonstration.

Great info, thanks Feesh!
